Subject: 2012 in gaming: A summary

Here is a tiered list of all notable video game releases this year. It has gone through rigorous voting on the internet and is generally agreed upon by most to be a very accurate portrayal of the year's notable games. Does the Flood concur? Any changes to the list you would make, and can you justify why?

Remember those times when we all had something better to be doing, but didn't do it? Those were good times. Gooood times

*Sees Blacklight Retribution in weak tier*
*nearly chokes on drink*

Great opinion, but I disagree with 90% of those placements...

I am Brosidon, King of the Brocean

Max Payne 3 is only under "good tier?"

WHAT IS THIS WITCHCRAFT

The most dangerous gunslinger in the west.

This chart is actually really accurate, and doesn't seem to be too biased.

Whoever made (or did all the research for) this, well done.

more or less agree, though i mildly question halo 4's place in the "great" tier.

  • 12.01.2012 9:29 PM PDT

I like to play Reach for fun. I hate MLG, campers, armor lock, and team killers because they ruin that fun. Deal with it.

The Walking Dead game is on the top tier? I am happy with this.

Vote for me for a free cookie.

2012 wasn't a great year for gaming imo. The only game that really impressed me was The Walking Dead. Hopefully next year will be better

Wonder what the demographics were for this poll. Must not be related to mine, it's all out of order for me.

Haha, been to /v/ recently have we?

I'd personally move Dishonored up to great tier.
Why is La Mulana on that but not the Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition?
Where's War of the Roses?

Upon further inspection, this list is so bad my jimmies have not just been rustled, but stepped on, beaten, and raped.

Maybe you should take a look at the other games on the list then, as there are a significant amount of fantastic titles. If you liked TWD, try Katawa Shoujo or Virtue's Last Reward.

Ignore my gamertag. It's actually Dragonzzilla.

Mass Effect 3 in the Weak Tier?

  • 12.01.2012 9:32 PM PDT

The only one that was right was Medal of Honor.

Hey, uh, if you like vs threads, then check out this little group right here, if you have the time. It's pretty fun, just hop right in.

Dishonored is in the 'good' tier but Silent Hill Downpour is 'bad'?

Whoever made this should be lobotomized.

deserves an objectively bad, imo, but there are some people i've talked to that mildly enjoyed it.

"Banhammer" - Post anything on the Waypoint forums -50g
Never forget:
Porch Day
lolReach
Gen Petitt Day
Night of the Living Alts

Why isn't Halo 4 in Objectively Bad tier?

  • 12.01.2012 9:35 PM PDT

hmm

AC3 shouldn't be in the 'okay tier', besides the ending it was a good time. :P

  • 12.01.2012 9:38 PM PDT

The human element always mucks things up.

I'd say the same if I wasn't attacked and killed in the middle of a cutscene.
